Will IPT replacing IFT change Guard/Reserve hiring?
I’ve read a few articles and other forums regarding the new Initial Pilot Training (IPT) program that is replacing Initial Flight Training in Pueblo, CO. I’m curious if this may change how some Guard/Reserve units hire since everyone is, at least for now, required to attend IPT whether they have a PPL or not. I know this will be largely…

We had some awesome discussions during last week’s office hours. We delved into the timing of units announcing UPT boards, the unique requirements specific units have in applications, typical interview weekend itineraries, and other topics.
Tune in next month, the more the merrier!

The AIM-120 has been the workhorse of the USAF and really the DOD forces since 1991! For everyone like me that “feels” the 90’s were a few years ago, it places the 120 at over 34 years old!

Also, you can contact Space Force Base LA directly and set up a TBAS testing date. The facilities and people at SFB LA were excellent. There is only one testing bay, so you get to take the test in a room alone with no distractions. I would highly recommend taking the TBAS at SFB LA.

No problem! If you still don’t hear back from them in a reasonable time (either by email or phone) then I would suggest showing up in person to get scheduled. Here’s the directions I got for getting there:
For parking, I recommend Parking Structure 12. “SDSU Parking Structure 12” comes up on Google Maps. Park on level 8, there is a pay station…

Hey BD! For those of you looking to hop into the tanker world you might be getting some better defensive capabilities in the future! With maybe some offensive in the future. Hopefully this will help fill the gaps in our near peer fighter. Definitely worth a read for all!

KC-135 Tankers Set To Get Drone Launchers
The USAF thinks small drones launched from KC-135s will give the tankers another layer of defense and extra situational awareness, among other capabilities.

I reached out to them not too long ago, and that sounds familiar. I’ll send another email tomorrow and see where that takes me. I appreciate it!

Hi Edan,
I agree with Randy’s comments regarding scheduling the AFOQT. I’m already a reservist at March so I was able to get a voucher code through their Education Office. For the TBAS, I recommend reaching out to the AFROTC detachment at SDSU. Let them know you want to schedule the TBAS with them and you can take it at their detachment. I had…
